I recently bought an MSI 7870 and it had issues with the audio.
Returned and exchanged for a brand new one and it had basically the same issue.
The audio would sound distorted and there would be a pop and then the audio would be OK for a while.
MSI suggested that their cards may not work with a TV and only with a monitor (sounds crazy to me) so I brought the card back and got my money back.
Now I'm looking for a new card again.
Thinking about dropping the extra couple of bucks and getting a GTX760 this time.
They start at like $250 but for $35 more I can get one with 4GB of ram.
Worth it?
Cooler looks kinda lame, and I imagine the single fan is going to be a bit loud.

Gaming is at 1080p for now.
